Services
Vinyl Flooring
Vinyl flooring provides a durable, easy-to-maintain solution for educational environments. Our Karndean and Polyflor options offer slip resistance, sound insulation, and resistance to scuffing from footwear. Available in multiple designs, these floors withstand heavy foot traffic while maintaining aesthetic appeal in classrooms and communal areas.
Carpet Tiles
Carpet tiles deliver comfort underfoot with noise-reducing properties ideal for learning spaces. Damaged sections can be replaced individually, reducing long-term maintenance costs. We offer extensive design options that combine practicality with visual appeal, suitable for both classrooms and administrative areas.
Linoleum Installation
Linoleum provides an eco-friendly, hygienic flooring option with inherent anti-microbial properties. Our installations feature seamless finishes that resist stains and wear in high-traffic zones. This durable solution suits dining halls and corridors requiring both functionality and aesthetic consistency.
Sub-floor Preparation
We provide comprehensive sub-floor preparation including damp proofing and latex screeding. Proper preparation ensures optimal adhesion and longevity for final flooring layers. This critical groundwork addresses structural imperfections to guarantee flawless end results in educational environments.
Damp Proofing
Our damp-proofing solutions prevent moisture ingress that could damage flooring systems. This essential service protects against mould growth and structural deterioration. We employ industry-leading membranes and techniques to ensure dry, safe environments for school buildings.
